The TLDR of the video is that the Russian invasion of Ukraine was bad, and that Western and Ukrainian aggression didn't poke the tiger. He doesn't mention that the West could end the war tomorrow.

To be fair, I'm not pro Putin. I know Russians in Russia who are risking their safety to be peace activists, which is the correct and noble position to have in Russia. An Australian guy taking the position that Putin bad just seems easy and is doing the work of the State department.

The elections aren't shams. The fact various powers in Russia will kill any threat and get away with it is the main drawback. With that said it's not like the US doesn't have a history of assassinations of political figures, carried out both by the state and by non-state actors.
